5.Uses big.LITTLE technology

LG G7 ThinQ

Samsung Galaxy S6

Using big.LITTLE technology, a chip can switch between two sets of processor cores in order to maximise performance and battery life. For example, when playing a game the more powerful cores will be used to increase performance, whereas checking email will use the less powerful cores to maximise battery life.

6.Has out-of-order execution

LG G7 ThinQ

Samsung Galaxy S6

Out-of-order execution is used in CPUs to make use of instruction cycles that would normally be wasted due to delays.
